A Life of Integrity

I learned a lot this week about integrity and doing things for the right reasons. Our integrity should be our number one priority and it is the foundation for all other virtues. I really liked the quote from our reading, “Integrity is the foundational virtue upon which all other virtues are dependent. It is the first rung on the character ladder. Where there is integrity, other virtues will follow. Where there is no integrity, other virtues have no chance of developing.” This to me was a powerful testimony of the importance of integrity. It has always been an important principle in my life but now my desire to live a life of integrity has only been magnified. My goal this week is to evaluate my personal integrity, look for ways to improve and then hold myself accountable every night. I believe that as we live lives of integrity, blessings follow and good things come. My goal is to be honorable in all things. It’s not something I’m perfect at but I definitely want to work on accomplishing and doing what I say I will do. The hardest thing for me is remembering what I said I would do. In order to be honorable I will have to be organized and plan things better that way I can follow through with what I say.
